IN THE NEWS

One of the area’s growing businesses, Ferndale-based Detroit Grooming Co., is supporting cancer research and programs through their new Pink Ribbon, a raspberry vanilla mint-scented pale pink bar soap starting on October 1.
The Michigan-made brand has teamed up with Barbara Ann Karmanos Cancer Institute and will donate 20 percent of all sales from this product to support breast cancer research and programs.
“Detroit Grooming Company has always supported men’s health issues through our No Shave November programs, and will continue to do so,” said Chad Buchanan, director of marketing and development for the brand. “We know how pervasive cancer is. All of our lives are impacted by this disease. We wanted to do what we could to support the fight against breast cancer and will begin with a product that we think will appeal to everyone.”
Pink Ribbon bar soap will be available for sale beginning Oct. 1, 2016 at www.detroitgrooming.com. Cost is $8.99 per bar.

Corktown Barbershop to Build on Success of Beard Balms

Ferndale-based Detroit Grooming Co. developed oils, balms and shampoos to help men fashion their beards, and now the owners are opening a Corktown barbershop where they can trim their clients’ whiskers, too.
Grooming Co. co-owners Michael Haddad and Chad Buchanan said they’ll get the keys to one of the storefronts of the newly restored historic building at 2000 Michigan Ave. in October. They should be open by the end of the year, less than a year after they opened their first shop on Woodward in Ferndale with their third partner, Shaun Walford.

Birthday Gifts for Him

His hair probably takes a lot more work than he likes to let on — or if it doesn’t, it’s probably got less of the I-Just-Got-Out-Of-Bed look and more the lopsided, cowlick-rampant look one gets when you really did just get out of bed. Detroit Grooming Company's Deluxe Pomade is an easy fix that he can easily use to style — without looking like he does.

Best Hair Combs for Men

Sharing the same form factor as your Amex, this modern take on the pocket comb is the perfect stocking stuffer for Movemberists looking to detangle their beards. However, the perpetual design makes it strong enough to perform basic hairstyling chores like straightening sideburns, shaving around lines, and simple slick-backs depending on hair length. The bottle opener near the top edge only adds to its distinct ubiquity.
